Git in Visual Studio Code
Visual Studio Code has Git support built in. You will need to have Git version 2.0.0 (or newer) installed.
The main features are:
-
See the diff of the file you are editing in the gutter.
-
The Git Status Bar (lower left) shows the current branch, dirty indicators, incoming and outgoing commits.
-
You can do the most common git operations from within the editor:
-
Initialize a repository.
-
Clone a repository.
-
Create branches and tags.
-
Stage and commit changes.
-
Push/pull/sync with a remote branch.
-
Resolve merge conflicts.
-
View diffs.
-
-
With an extension, you can also handle GitHub Pull Requests: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=GitHub.vscode-pull-request-github.
The official documentation can be found here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/sourcecontrol/overview.
